First everyone says that ...Someone make up my mind. First everyone says that Wasilla is such a small town, that it speaks very little for Palin's leadership experience, but when she tries to ask about book banning procedures, then it becomes a nationwide scare?! You're all being ridiculous! You know good and well that if something like this ever got to a nationwide scale, the uprising would speak volumes, the Supreme Court would deem it unconstitutional, and it would have to pass through Congress and Senate. That's why this country is based on checks and balances. Why must everyone be sooooo ignorant? Because of our political system, although not free from flaws, has allowed you to protest, write against, and given you the opportunities to join and make a difference (Harvey Milk, anyone?). Oh but we're going to let one issue make or break this country. We allowed Clinton to remain in office despite his flaws and because of his leadership, it's now OK that other politicians did drugs, have affairs, and rewrite the dictionary. Overall, Palin's shown that she's a woman of action and if something or someone gets in the way, then a resolution must be attained. She's got five kids! Do you think, she waits around to get all five kids to decide what's in their best interest? She's more liberal than conservative in that respect!

When the current librarian told her no way, she tried to have the librarian fired "for not fully supporting her" and then claimed it was "just a test of loyalty".

I am not making any claims about her firing the librarian that are in the video, as I don't know and will let the media and investigators do their job. The point of this post is to show her censorship philosophy and anti-gay attitude.Queers Unitedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05074493276489593816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-2464487830151008122008-09-10T12:41:00.000-04:002008-09-10T12:41:00.000-04:00debunkeddebunkedProject Directorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14893065875061919813noreply@blogger.com
